prohibition on false and misleading advertising applies to medical facilities centers as well as any other business. there is also a separate provision on false advertising by licensed medical professionals. supervisor elsbernd: so walk me through the pre-emption argument then. if we have state law on this point, what more are we doing with this ordinance that is not covered by state law? >> what this ordinance does that is not covered by state law is two things. first, it makes clearer and the end of the release to the court, if the court finds false and misleading advertising. is much more specific than state law. in addition, in a section that is not in the business code

17500, the false advertising statute, the ordinance requires a letter be sent 10 days before filing suit with an opportunity for the limited services pregnancy center to cure any false or misleading advertising before a suit is filed. that is a provision that is not in the state law. supervisor elsbernd: ok. colleagues, i will be dissenting on this. after reading the memo from the city attorney, it was clear that we needed to have established for us today some sort of legislative record demonstrating false and misleading advertising, demonstrating the evidence. and not so much nationally. we are the san francisco board of supervisors. we needed to see a presentation of that within sanfrancisco. we have two facilities within

san francisco. one of the facilities, there was not an ounce of evidence. nothing has been submitted about them. frankly, i came in here thinking that there would be an abundance of things on them because they were the unlicensed one. regarding the licensed one, 90 percent of the comments were based on yelp reviews. google searching -- i did that myself, and it comes up. but i do not think that warrants the city asking for an ordinance. i recognize there are some key differences -- and there are differences. i very much recognize that. but the legislative record here,

to me, is empty, and we would not be able to successfully defend this in court. i do not want to see us pursue this and have thus lose. so i will need a roll call on the motion. supervisor avalos: thank you, supervisor elsbernd. i am wholeheartedly in support of a woman's right to choose. i looked at the memo that we got from the city attorney. i was expecting that we would have more information about what kind of advertising we see in san francisco before us, but did not see that. i think it puts at risk our ability -- since we do not have a record -- to prevail in court, if there is an appeal on this legislation. but i do believe -- i need to

see evidence for myself whether there is value. i was wondering why we were getting yelp produce more than anything. just like when i pick a restaurant, i do not always pick those reviews to be gospel. wondering that i would like to do, and i hate to delay, but can we have another hearing where we can get more information to do that? i would love to be able to support legislation supporting a woman's right to choose, but i cannot tell actually what the experience here in san francisco is of people receiving false information. i had expected it would be clear, from the memo that we

got, that we needed to provide that to strengthen it. if we provide that record, -- and i am likely to support anyways. but if we can provide that record, i can support that. a record of false advertising. so in a new motion is to send a support without recommendation and provide that evidence of false advertising to the full board next week. can we take that without objection? thank you very much. colleagues, can we take a 10- minute recess before the next item? thank you.

supervisor avalos: please call item three. >> item 3. hearing on the status of the america's cup workforce development plan to include reports from the mayor's office of economic and workforce development, the port, and america's cup event authority on provisions for prevailing wage for temporary and permanent structures, ensuring high labor standards, and maximizing opportunities for local workforce training and employment on end use jobs. supervisor avalos: thank you, mademoiselle clerk. the border supervisors had

approved the america's cup agreement. we have teamed up with the america's cup regatta that will take place in the next two years. there was a lot of preparation for the america's cup and office of economic workforce development. we have been working at great length with the america's cup event a tory to see that the plan comes to fruition. also last year we had passed our local hire ordinance in construction that would mandate rising levels of hiring local san franciscans in the construction industry, funded with our dollars. we just need to make sure that the spirit of local hire ordinance and local letter of the law are apply where they can be. the america's cup is one area where do want to make sure we can put all that promise. that promise came and we had the america's cup agreement come before us that the board of

supervisors and budget finance committee. there was a direct discussion on the number of jobs that would be provided, an economic benefit that would come to san francisco. the economic benefit was about to be $1.4 billion. the number of jobs that were assessed, to be traded, about 800 jobs over all. whenever we have big development prod to come before the board of supervisors, there is a lot of talk about local jobs. it is one of the big selling points we have. i think it is important that we do our work on the board of supervisors to make sure we are maximizing that promise. we want to make sure that local residents will be able to get a job in the industries we create, in this case, the america's cup, construction projects, and other non-construction related projects. our hiring ordinance has really

focused on the construction aspect of this, and we looked -- need to look for the ways of filling the local workforce development plan. what helps us is that, in the agreement for the america's cup, we have language that says there must be a local workforce development plan to buy it -- provided at the time that the er is provided to the planning department, that will be in december. this hearing today is a status update on what efforts are going on so far for the workforce development plan for the america's cup regatta, preparations for the america's cup, and also to hear from the public about concerns, ideas on how to put all the promises as well. i want to thank the office of economic and workforce development, representatives for the america's cup authority who

are here today. thank you for your early work on the workforce development plan. thank you for being here to share with us where we are so far. what we have in place today in terms of presentations is to get a broad overview, a fairly brief, of the whole america's cup, where we are at in terms of the planning, and then delve into the planning, that will be followed by public comment. first we have mike, the project director in office of economic and workforce development, who is overseeing the development plan. >> thank you, chair of the loss. supervisors, good morning. i am the project director from the office of economic work force and development. -- chair avalos. i have a power point presentation that will give the

overview of the broad event and plans, but also, the remarks from the chair more -- resonate in terms of the promise to deliver economic benefits. as you noted, it is very much a challenge to take models we have in different sectors and put them together in a way that hopefully addresses the full range of opportunities in the america's cup events. we will be doing that in a way that hopefully augment, enhances, brings forward legacy is that can help the city move forward and deliver on these benefits on a more permanent basis for its residences and businesses.

quickly, i'm going to a brief event overview, talk about the america's cup economic strategy, which really encompasses, as you noted, the over $1 billion in economic activity, how we are looking at that. in more direct places that we can influence and direct activity, and a more indirect opportunities we have to bring those benefits to san francisco. from there we will move towards the workforce development plan in particular. i would like to ask a couple of speakers to come and join me. first, and carlo pass from the department of public works to talk about the dree project. following that, and deputy martin from the america's cup authority. following that, rhonda simmons from the workforce development division to talk about the strategies we're looking to

include in these conversations, moving forward. quickly, i wanted to give an overview of the events. in 2012, there will be two america's cup world series event. these are 1-off exhibition regattas over the course of nine days. what will happen in august, another in september. these are the same team that will race in 2013 but they are using the smaller 45-foot catamaran. they have had two initial stops on this series. the first was in portugal in august. most recent was a couple of weeks ago in england. they are very exciting and a helpful way to start visualizing what is coming, helping our partners at the authority to see how they will put on this challenge. in 2013, the main event starts in august and september with the

louis vuitton challenger series. challengers will face up to see who will face the defender in the final period as of now, oracle is the only defender entered into the competition. once a competition challenger is selected, then in september, we would have the america's cup final. this slide shows that schedule. moving forward, a key partners. this is always helpful to start out with so people do not get mixed up on who is to. key partners here, all of whom have america's cup in their name. the lead partner is the america's cup event authority. they are the project sponsor who are overseeing the on-land aspects of putting on the event. they will be, for example, the lessee on the port short-term then use where they are putting on the event activities as well as the permits the of park

lands. they are also the party to the host of an agreement that is charged with developing the work force agreement. america's cup race management is the race of the artist's sister organization. they are overseeing the on-water portion of the event. the competition relating to the actual sailing race as well as spectator and events and the traffic on the water. they are intricately involved in the planning process as well. america's cup organizing committee is a locally formed nonprofit organization charged with raising up to $32 million of philanthropic funds to cover the public cost of the events. acoc also provides a key role in convening issues, including community issues, such as the work force plan. they have been a wonderful sounding board, helping us to put together not only the right approach for san francisco, but the right approach in the way

that everyone was promised to when we were first announced as the host city. supervisor avalos: how is the funding going so far? >> i believe we have raised about $2 million. they are well on track to reach the $12 million level. that needs to be reached by a the end of -- other relationships have helped them to realize dollars quicker in getting to that goal. getting back to the slide. this is just to orientate ourselves. a light blue polygon in the middle is where they are proposing the race. to be. the dogged, larger area was where the race which originally

slated for. understand the performance levels of the boats, keeping parts of the golden gate open for shipping traffic, in conversations with the coast guard, this area is likely to be the 2013 race area. along the northern waterfront, some park locations highlighted in yellow, starting west and moving east through the maritime national historic district. those are our key programming menus. they will be basically temporary installations for spectator hospitality, other vip, media uses. along the port waterfront to the east, at the bottom of the race area, you see a triangular area appear that is piers 27 and 29.

that is basically the america's cup village. moving south, in the bottom right hand corner, south of the bay bridge, the other major infrastructure location at piers 30 and 32. this is just to orient ourselves. a mix of more permanent infrastructure and improvements along the waterfront, as well as temporary installations and even activities on the park lands. -- event activities on the park lands. this is piers 30/32. this will be the team-based areas. this is where the vessels would be worked on. this would also be a location with limited public access,

including the brennan street wharf. this is obviously going to be a key place for event the party infrastructure to make it safe for the uses that are there. right now, it is not approved for this level of activity. with approval, it would then make this more habitable and would allow themselves to put their installations on top. as i mentioned earlier, i want to step back and take a look at the broad economic strategy. we mentioned the billion dollar number, the jobs number, over a thousand. those projections are obviously very exciting, but we need to do what we can to deliver on those promises. what we have tried
